| WS 88 (10/2007): This offers pure black cherry, cassis and currant on the nose and is sweet and ripe on the palate. Rich and well-balanced, with a touch of coffee bean and cedar that fold in on the palate. The finish is smooth, with just the right amount of tannins.--1996 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now through 2011. |

WS 89 (9/1999): Wonderfully supple texture and great purity of fruit, with polished cherry, berry, sage, anise and leather notes that stay tightly focused and linger on the finish. Best from 2000 through 2006.
WA 88 (12/1998): The 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa is an elegant, medium-bodied example with more tannin than most regular bottlings (a characteristic of the vintage). This structured wine offers weedy black currant fruit, subtle oak, and a well-built, concentrated finish. About 8% Cabernet Franc was added to the blend. The 1996 is approachable, but it promises to be even better with several more years of bottle age, and will last 12-15+ years.
VM 88 (6/1999): Full red-ruby. Slightly roasted aromas of plum, cherry, cassis, leather, mocha and earth. Sweet, fat, full and generous in the mouth; this will offer satisfying early drinking. Finishes with dusty tannins and notes of redcurrant, smoke and leather. Stephen Tanzer. |

WS 93 (7/1999): Openly ripe and fruity, with complex aromas and flavors. The texture is smooth and polished, giving the core of currant, cherry, coffee, cedar and spice a gentle ride until the finish, where the tannins firm up. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2002 through 2008. 4,700 cases made.
VM 92 (6/1999): Good deep red-ruby. Enticing aromas of raspberry, plum, nutty oak and game; offers a Burgundian tang. Lush, silky and layered; has the intensity and concentration to wear its acids and tannins gracefully. Finishes very long; the even tannins coat the entire mouth. An excellent '96.
WA 90 (1/2000): The 1996 Legacy, a blend of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, and 17% Cabernet Franc, exhibits an opaque ruby/purple color in addition to a toasty nose, chocolate, black currants, lead pencil, and smoke. Full-bodied, with high tannin, this pure, concentrated wine needs another 2-3 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2020. |
